Re: More about: "Java REGISTRY missing or incorrect?"

Does it want me to edit the registry in some way? Or delete the
existing directory? Or do something else?

Maybe try:

SET J2NOVERIFYREGISTRY=1 (or =T or =TRUE)

in config.sys

Oh, that's GOOD. Very easy, and it worked. Is there a downside for
ignoring the Registry?

I don't have the faintest idea. The only thing I did is have a look at
J2WIN.DLL with a text editor and finding that string. From the name I
deduced that the registry would somehow be ignored.

The funny thing is: here, I also don't have anything Java related in the
registry (neither in the OS/2 registry nor in the "Windows mimicked"
registry) and I also do not have that setting in config.sys and still I
don't get the error message that you get.

Lars

What I have is an empty folder. I have these folder (among others):

HKEY_USERS
SOFTWARE
J2WIN

All the folders in the entire HKEY_USERS hierarchy contain nothing but
(DEFAULT) (Value not set). Do you have that J2WIN folder? If not,
perhaps that is the key; I wonder if in its absence I would need the
line in CONFIG.SYS.
